Answer 1

I don't have it, but at one point I did work in a body image lab.  Typically a combination of antidepressants and counseling is recommended.

Also, I want to congratulate you on recognizing you may have a problem and reaching out for help.  That takes a lot of courage and you should be proud of yourself.
